Kim has represented my family in both buying and selling properties. Like a lot of people we have many friends and acquaintances that are realtors but Kim is the best. She is open and approachable (we first met her just as a neighbor watching Oaks Park fireworks). Kim does a lot of work upfront with extensive research and comps which she patiently reviewed with us so we could make informed decisions. In one case we were selling a much loved but older home which ended up with a phonebook size inspection report of things that needed to be fixed. Kim made sure that neither we nor the buyer freaked out and continued negotiations to overcome all obstacles and found a way to make us and the buyer feel good about getting back on track and closing the deal. Kim loves her work and brings a lot of knowledge to the table. There are many decisions throughout these transactions and Kim patiently went through each option. List price, counteroffers, repairs, and when some deals on the surface looked best, she had us look at the whole picture and how the contingencies might really impact us. We also had help from her and her team to get bids on work, meet up with contractors, and finalize repairs. You may think selling a property in a sellers market can be done by any realtor but if you want to get the highest and best offers you need Kim and her team. If you want to buy in a sellers market you need Kim and her team to get the best price and close the deal.

Kim was an excellent choice to help us find and purchase our first home. She did a great job helping us narrow down our choices and locations, ultimately finding a home that was a perfect fit. Kim has a great approach to the home buying process and I will definitely use her for any future transactions.

Kim was very helpful helping me find and close my new home. In a very competitive market, I found a dream home and was under contract in one weekend. I relocated from Denver, and was not in town to complete the entire home buying process. After I found the home, Kim met with inspectors and contractors in my place. I was able to close early. It was the simplest and least stressful home buying experience I have ever had. Kim is great at her job and it is obvious that she enjoys her work.

— Becky M.

We were extremely satisfied with the level of professionalism and knowledge that Kim brought to our home purchase experience. She was highly recommended to us by a friend and for good reason. Going into our home search we were intimidated by hearing stories of how competitive the Portland housing market has been. However, due to Kim's knowledge and experience our home purchase was surprisingly easy. She did her due diligence and ensured that our interests were protected. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

My husband and I decided this was the year we were going to buy our first home. We were very nervous about how the whole process was going to go, but from the first meeting with Kim, we knew we had someone on our side fighting for us and making sure we were well informed in this process we had never experienced. We especially loved how committed Kim was to helping us realize our dreams. She was so hardworking and accommodated our hectic schedules with ease. But the best part about Kim is that she is incredibly friendly and was such a pleasure to hang out with during this super stressful process, she made us feel comfortable and happy the whole way through.

I can't imagine our house hunting process without Kim. We were new in town and confused about best neighborhoods, market, processes, among others. Kim was very professional, easy to reach and fast in responding any questions we had. She had great knowledge about the market, guided us very well and dedicated a lot of time with us to make sure we found the perfect house...and always with a big smile. I would definitely contact her again in the future.

Kim helped me through relocating from another state. Not only was she knowledgeable about the area, but she was able to help me navigate my relocation package. She was able to help with realistic expectations of what to expect in the current market. Not only did she help me buy the house I wanted, but she has followed up and checked in after even after the transaction.

I would highly recommend Kim Borcherding to anyone. Kim gave an honest assessment and practical advice on how to sell our home. In addition, to our "to-do" list, she offered recommendations on professionals that ready made our home ready to sell. To top it off, we had an our first offers within a week. In summary our house sold and closed in about a month. Kim gave us up to date data on the market and gave great advice how to sell and for how much. Kim made what could have been an excruciating process into one that we look back on with huge smiles.

Going into the first out of state real estate purchase we were very apprehensive. We have always worked with agents and brokers we know personally so working with an unknown company and an assigned agent felt like a blind date. To our great relief Kim turned out to be the consummate representative of our best interests, advising us on the area and the market, communicating with sellers and deftly handling all inspectors and other service providers. We enjoyed our short time working together and will enthusiastically recommend Kim to our friends and colleagues.

Kim is far and away THE most phenomenal realtor. I was out of state and she took care of every detail for me from start to finish. She has resources for everything, from arranging clothing donations, suggesting movers, painters, and stagers to fixing door locks and replacing light bulbs. She personally oversaw the packing, moving and storage of my entire household. She is a wonderful communicator, calling me often if there was a question or a problem. When I saw the final photographs online I almost didn't recognize my condo! Ultimately, it was sold for thousands over asking price, thanks to Kim. I can't recommend her highly enough.

— Gayle B.

Kim is an incredibly attentive, thoughtful and and professional real estate broker. It was an absolute pleasure to work with her, and I can honestly say this transaction couldn't have been completed without her expert assistance. Despite being a first time buyer, Kim made the process clear, manageable and efficient. She was always available, and worked to make sure that no detail was overlooked. Because of Kim, I'm now the proud owner of my dream home 30 days after touring it with her. I can't recommend Kim highly enough.

— Drew F.

From start to finish, Kim did an outstanding job of making sure everything was right for us. She listened to our wants/limitations and found the perfect fit on our second showing. Kim remained a part of our team throughout the negotiation, financing and move-in process. The gift basket waiting for our family on our first night in our new home summed up the experience with Kim; it was all about us, never her. I would highly recommend Kim to anyone in the market to buy or sell a home. Brooks N.

I can't say enough good things about Kim. She is amazing!! Kim from my first meeting was very professional, yet one of the most personable people that I have ever met. I entered the condo buying process for the first time and was quite nervous about the whole process. Kim was great at easing my worries and getting me started. Kim began the search for me, listening closely to what I was looking for. With her skill and knowledge I put in my first offer which quickly became my first condo. She made the buying process stress free and fun! Kim truly cares about people and making a difference in their lives. She is a true professional and one of the hardest working people that I have ever met. I will highly recommend Kim to everyone that I meet for years to come! Thank you Kim!!! Client- Debra H.

Kim is the consummate professional. She is attentive to client concerns and responds timely, accurately, and completely. We were under a very short time frame to buy a house, and Kim was ready, willing, and able to make it all happen in the short time frame. She went far above and beyond to negotiate on our behalf, to see that our needs and wants were met, and to help us out in all ways she could. Since we were moving from out of state, she helped us out with the details and logistics of not only buying the home but making and completing arrangements for the move. One of Kim's strongest traits is communication - she is great at it! . Her knowledge of the market, the neighborhoods in Portland and the home selling/buying process is off the charts awesome. The entire time, we felt as if we were her only clients. Kim invested a great deal of time and effort into making our home purchase and our move to Portland an easy transition. We could not be happier with her ideas, suggestions, and efforts! We recommend her without reservation.

Hard worker! Kim did an exceptional job working with my husband and I. We each had different needs and wants. She helped us communicate and bridge this gap to get us the perfect house! We really appreciated her hard work!!

— Steph G.

Kim Is AWESOME! She was a champ at getting me into any house that I was excited about, even on short notice. We have three small children and Kim was so great with them and always helped keep them entertained. Kim was very thorough and an amazing communicator, she always kept us in the loop and very informed. We highly recommend her services!

— Heidi M.

In one word: Amazing. But that's not enough. Kim is helpful, insightful, punctual, persistent, tolerant, patient and aggressive when necessary. When our first offer failed Kim didn't let us wallow - she had us out searching three days later and we found a bigger and better home. Kim then researched comparable sales and saved us $20,000 on the price. Kim's organizational skills kept the paperwork flowing. Kim's tight relationship with our mortgage broker ensured that the lines of communication were always open. That great organization and communication eventually made it possible to close a week and 1/2 early. We're grateful for Kim's efficiency, expertise & optimism. I highly recommend Kim Borcherding.
